Valentine's Day is coming up fast, and for some that might not be a good thing, unless, of course, they had the Grow a Boyfriend/Girlfriend. These significant other substitutes may not be able to cuddle or take you out for a romantic, candlelit dinner, but at least they'll keep you company.
Available online at the Neatoshop, the Grow a Boyfriend/Girlfriend toys are priced at an affordable $1.95, unlike real dates. Simply dunk them in some water and watch them grow.
